Boys tennis gearing up for districts

Former Madras High School boys tennis district finalist doubles team performing strong.

The Madras White Buffalo boys tennis team was on the road all this week. In their most recent meet, they beat Stayton 4-0, April 19.

Several matches were left unfinished due to weather, but the matches that only lasted two sets were able to be completed.

Esteban Gomez and Tony Giron are playing together again and showing why they were such a dangerous duo last season. Last year's district finalists competed for the first time together this season on April 16, defeating their Cascade opponents in three sets.

The two won all of their matches this week, including a 6-2, 6-2, victory over Daniel Johnson and Nolan Cramer.

The Madras boys tennis program traveled to Cascade April 16, and lost to the Cougars in a very close contest. Madras and Cascade tied 4-4 in matches, but the Cougars barely edged out the Buffs 71-70 in games.

Gomez and Giron played together for the first time since the 2018 district tournament and picked up right where they left off, beating Adam Marquez and Jake Farr 6-3, 5-7, 6-3.

Jorgensen and Garcia played in the No. 2 doubles match for the Buffs and beat Brydon Burgdoff and Colton Lee 6-2, 6-2.
